She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge.
at St.
[C]
She told me that her tap was loaded.
I said, in that case, I'm a woman.
[G] fine.
then in 30 seconds time, she said,
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge.

_ _ _ She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge.
She studied sculpture at St.
Martin's College, that's where _ [G] I_
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
She told me that her tap was loaded. _
I said, in that case, I'm a woman.
Coca-Cola.
She said, [G] fine.
_ _ _ _ _ And then in 30 seconds time, she said,
[F] I wanna live like common people.
I wanna do _ whatever common people do.
[C] I wanna sleep with common people.
_ I wanna sleep with common people like you.
[G] _ _
Or what else could I do?
I said, oh, _ I'll see what I can [C] do. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I took her to the supermarket.
_ I don't know why, but I just started [G] somewhere.
_ _ So it started _ _ there. _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] I said, pretend you couldn't remember me.
And she just laughed and said,
Oh, you're so funny, I suggest.
[G] _ _ _ I can't see anyone else smiling here.
_ _ Are you sure?
[F] You wanna live like common people.
You wanna see what common people [C] see.
Wanna sleep with common people.
You wanna sleep with common people like [G] me.
_ But she _ didn't understand.
Then she just smiled and had my [C] hand. _ _ _
_ I went to class with all the sound.
I kept your hair and gave it down.
The social [G] factions played some fool.
Pretending I never went to school.
Still, you'll [C] never get it right.
It's when you're late and bad at it.
Or do you [G] just cry on the wall?
If you told your daddy, he'd stop it.
Oh, yeah.
[F] You'll never live like common people.
_ You'll never do whatever the common people do.
[C] Never play it like common people.
You'll never watch your lives.
Try not [G] to feel.
And the dance, and drink, and screw. _
Because there's nothing else to [C] do.

_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] Sing along with the common people.
_ Sing along and it might just get you [C] through.
Walk along with the common people.
Walk along in the class of the [G] two. _
And the stupid things that you do.
Because you think that all is [C] good. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Commoner, they will bite you.
And whether you want milk [G] out. _ _
_ Or tear your incense out.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] Because everybody hates you, tourists.
_ _ Especially one who thinks it's all for your luck.
[G] _ _ _
_ _ And keeps days of grief.
Well, come out in the back.
You [F] will never _ understand.
_ How it feels to live your life.
With no meaning [C] or control.
And with nowhere left to go.
You are [G] amazed that they exist.
_ And they burn so bright whilst you can't see.
I [C] wonder why. _
I'm in top class above the shop.
Cut your hair and get a job.
I still turn [G] fat and play some pool.
Pretend you never went to school.
Pretend you [C] never get it right.
It's when you're laying there at night. Watch it.
[G] _ We'll just climb the wall.
If you come down, that's because it's coming home. _
[F] Never live like common people. _
Never do what common people [C] do.
Never fail like common people.
Never watch your life.
It's right on the table.
Let me dance.
Let me _ sing.
Because there's nothing else to do. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I'm in top _ _ class.
I'm a living common people.
_ I'm a living common people.
_ I'm a living common people like you.
I'm a living common people like you.
I'm a living common people like you.
I'm a living_ _
